Soak City ranked among top 10 water parks

A recent survey by TripAdvisor ranks Cedar Point's water park #10 in the nation.

Soak City, which opened in 1988 adjacent to Cedar Point, gives thrillseekers dozens of ways to cool down in the Sandusky summer sizzle.

The most recent addition came in 2012 when Soak City unleashed Dragster H2O. It takes six sliders at a time through a curvy, enclosed tube before gushing them down a series of hills into a splash-filled finish. Each rider braves Dragster H2O head-first by sliding down on their stomachs using blue mats.

The TripAdvisor list did not include any of the Schlitterbahn water parks, which are considered industry trendsetters. Recently, the Schlitterbahn location in Kansas City, Kansas, opened the world's tallest water slide, which sparked global headlines and a one-hour Travel Channel special.
